On a 2G GST, is the vehicle speed sensor the little thing sticking up in between the rear motor/tranny mount? If so, I broke mine during a transmission reinstall...and have no clue how to get it back out to replace it. Anyone ever have to pull this thing out? Is there an easy way to do it?

Also, where the heck does the reverse back up light indicator plug back into? I'm lost on that...can't find where it goes.

I should've let a shop do the clutch install...guess that's what I get. Everything else went smooth except for those two little things...

Please help me!

That is your Vehicle speed sensor. It is a M8x1.25 bolt that holds it in, about 40mm long. A 10mm socket fits on the head of the bolt.
Your reverse lights/sensor should be up near where the factory clutch line mounts if I remember correctly (maybe I am thinking 1g trans, little help guys?).
It is a 3 "prong" connection.

Hey thanks a bunch! That really helped out....I didn't know there was a bolt next to it--guess I shoulda looked while it was out of the car...

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
